Outdoor outlet shopping center! a whole new shopping experience..

I have never been to an outdoor mall before. At first, I thought the concept is kind of strange; honestly, what are people supposed to do when it hails/rains/snows? Anyways, today's weather was luckily very nice, not too hot or cold (we weren't really planning to go in the first place, kind of stumble across it as we decided very last minute-ly to not attend a volunteer event...oh wells). The outlet shopping center wasn't completely outdoors, there were pavilion ceilings over certain parts of the mall. Everything there is literally outlet or factory store, of course, I was happy over the mooons!! I bought a crapload of stuff, its kind of ridiculous how I have stretch marks on my arms from carrying those heavy shopping bags. We hit most of the big stores:

Saks Fifth - found my lovely Cole Haans,

Calvin Klein - bought more pants (I love their pants! but their shirts are HUGEE...Iwould be swimming in them),

Guess - I always think I will find something there because my roommate at school had always gotten cute stuff from this store,

Clarks - sandals are soo cute but I don't want to get the same as my friends (I have several friends who have them and honestly I don't remember which style they got),

Naturalizer - bought a pair of wedge sandals that I am going to return...I decided that I didnt like it when I home,

Loft - I think I raided this store too much in Maryland so much that I didnt find anything today,

Coach - OMGOSH, this freaking place is NUTTY...we had to wait inline to go into the store...everything was extra 30% off. We saw many Asian women having at least 5-8 bags on their arms...it was ridiculous! Coach isnt that great =.= ,

MK - found this really really cute bag only if they had it in brown/tannish (apparently that color is called "luggage" brown...), I want the charlton crossbody at some point too but unwilling to pay $128 for it,

J Crew - nothing too great...I always think I will find something awesome but end up failing. I think their sizes are weird and also only really tall blondes look good in J Crew stuff,

Banana Republic - one of my favorite stores now! bought a pair of fitted cropped grey pants (work clothes yayyy!) I wish they had more colorful stuff like Loft because BR's quality is a lot better than Loft,

Converse - my friends bought shoes from there! I don't think I am hip enough to wear those haha, I am sticking to Keds,

Nine West - I have lost my interest in Nine West and moved onto COLE HAANS! hahaha

This section will be dedicated solely to Cole Haan....
Handbags - Heritage Weave Stripe Archer, Heritage Weave Stripe Ava are so cute but they might a bit too classy for young 20s. price tag: $348 sighhh loll I am planning to get it for my mom at the end of the summer.
Shoes - OMGOSH absolute love here...Talia's are ugly, Violet's are amazing (if you want more height 90, lower 60), Margot's are the most comfortable (I got them in nude wedges soo excited)

My lovely Cole Haans:





















Yeah about those career aspirations...any job that is interesting, that pays enough so I can feed myself and be able to go on shopping sprees ^-^
